Academy ace set for European tournament action

ISAIAH Brown’s marvellous March continues after he was included in the England squad for the UEFA European Under-17 Championship Elite Round tournament with Portugal, Slovenia and Russia later this month.

The 16-year-old Academy star made his first Barclays Premier League matchday squad against Chelsea on Saturday.

And he has now been named in John Peacock’s 18-man squad to take on Portugal at Walsall FC on Saturday, March 23, Russia two days later at Burton Albion FC, and, at the same venue, Slovenia on Thursday, March 28 (all kick off at 7pm).
